And now, the famous Univac of Rand has widened this lead even furthei4with a computing system that's twke as fast-&&,.. new write, and compute simultaneously wit equipment. To these superior features, Thisis the equipment in which the dat ing actually takes place. Here the Univ solves the problems which are given t forming mathematical and logical ope millionths of seconds. Data recorded on magnetic tape is fed Uniservos into the magnetic-core memory computer, where it is held available for proce at any instant. Then it goes to the data-pro circuits, where the computations are perfo The result is returned to the memory, w it is either retained, awaiting further proce or sent out from the com~uter as a hal r and recorde icatape by the

The Unityper I1 is a modified Remington Electric Typewriter, equipped with electronic circuits which convert type strokes into pulse patterns, recording them on magnetic tape. This unit is compact, economical, and fastcan be operated by any typist or keypunchoperator. verifier The Univac Veriiier is a versatile 3-purpose unit. It prepares tape input in the same manner as the Unityper 11, it prints output from processed tapes, and it checksthe accuracy of input tapes.verifying is performed by re-typing the input data already on the tape. If the second typing is not identical with thefirst,the machine automatically bcks. The operator may then erase the error, substitute the correct character, and continue typing. vac System is integrated system, the Card-to-Tape cally prepares an accura tape of the information contained in the punched cards. Processing 240 cards a minute, the Converter reads each card twice and compares the second reading with the initial recording on the magnetic tape. If the two are not identical

The output tape is mounted on a Tape Reader which converts magnetic recording into electrical impulses. These impulses, in turn, activate a modified Remington Electric Typewriter which automatically types the processed data. tape-to-card converter Some applications require Univac results in the form of punched cards. These are produced by the Tape-to-Card Converter, at the rate of 120 cards a minute. Automatic checking circuits ensure that the data punched in the card is identical with that on the processed output tape.

5 operating the system Electronic computers are not actually "giant brains," as they are popularly called; they are extremely efficient but totally unimaginative servants to those who use them. The efficiency with which they operate depends on the human intelligence planning the program of instructions which tells them what to do. This is not just true of Univac, but of all computing systems. Univac programmers have had many years of actual field experience in preparing instructions for a system of this type. Univac has proven to be the prototype of the business computer of the future, and those who have pioneered in its many applications have acquired training unobtainable elsewhere. Others may have a groundwork in theory-our programmers have become experts through practical experience. You and your company can profit from this experience in either of two ways: First, if you want to egplore the possibility of purchasing or renting a computer for full-time use, Remington Rand offers a series of training - courses in electronic computing equipment. Second, if you have an immediate application for the Univac System which can be handled by occasional use, Univac equipment and personnel are available through our Computer Center services.
